ABSTRACT:
A gamma radiation detector, wherein it comprises a xenon crystal, a xenon atmosphere above said xenon crystal, a pair of electrodes comprising two metallic electrodes on either side of the xenon crystal, the first electrode being brought to negative potential (cathode) and located in the vicinity of one face of the xenon crystal and the second electrode brought to positive potential (anode) is placed parallel to the cathode in the xenon atmosphere and visualization device of the photons emitted in the gaseous xenon, whereby the face of the xenon crystal in the vicinity of the cathode is arranged in such a way that it receives the gamma radiation to be measured.
